Being a city slicker for 46 years of my life, my wife, who lived in the peace and serenity of the country life, finally talked me into COUNTRY LIFE, 2 years ago. Totally love country life, near Menahga, MN. Why didn’t we do this 20 years ago? Great video, Zach
I cut the cable years ago, YT is pretty much my couch potato time. Really enjoy your channel entertaining and educational. Spending a day or week on a selfie stick seems like it would get old fast.
I didn't grow up on a farm but thanks to my wife I have a small hobby farm with goats, rabbits, ducks, chickens and sometime pigs and cows. It has been a huge learning curve for me but so worth bringing up our four kids with all the stuff they get to see and do every day. We also have one of the largest 4H groups in our county with over 80 youth. Love your content and videos Zach. Always look forward to each video. Thanks.
There is a special set of values I think you acquire growing up on a farm. My folks had a small dairy farm when I was young. I was too young to run much of the equipment, but I spent a lot of time with and watching my dad solve everyday problems without running to town for a new part. If nothing else, I learned to think about work-arounds....and to have tons of patience. Enjoy your summer,,,, and family. They grow up so fast.
Glad to have you back mate. Never hesitate to take time away from here....family and sanity are too important . We're privileged to have you live your life in a goldfish bowl.....but respect your need for 'quiet time' and quality family time. Thanks to you all, and God bless John.
Thanks for the break. Its work watching your videos. I didn't realize how tired ow watching I was until you gave me a break. I will be forever grateful!
I'm laughing at the fact that you said the soy beans you killed aren't coming back lol surely not! Lol I did even worse! Didn't plant an end row pass!! Lol I prayed for you guys to get rain in my video today! Love the kids ripping in the side by side!
Referring back to your last video with electrical breaker tripping. Where I was employed we had annually checked all our breaker panels with infrared heat camera. We had an electrical contractor remove panel covers and photograph each panel, hot spots would show up as weak breakers, loose connections, and other preventive goodies 😉... we had over 500 panels 🤣 120 volt to 1200 volt. Took 2 weeks to complete checks.
I asked my dad and this year we are spraying liberty and surfactant just like you all you’re a good farmer our cotton is looking great keep up the work 😀😁
Michigan has a similar voluntary program to that and I am a technician through the Conservation District and it is a great program! SO MANY great farmers out there wanting to do the best and right thing for their watersheds! Yay!
They don’t get much more frugal than me, but power tarps and openers on your trailers are an essential time management, force multiplier. So is AC in your shop! If you ever make it to N. Central Illinois, I’d love to show you my 2 story shop built out of concrete with spancrete and fully air conditioned. built into a hillside. I worked in the dirt for over a decade after turning my old shop into a milling facility. I’m real proud of her! New grain system also. I’m high on the hog.
Congratulations on the water 💦 quality program. Thank you for caring about your part of this earth. I really enjoy your channel. Keep up the great work 💯
We’ve come along way baby from the Spra-coupe, which we never had. We had a galvanized tank with manual fold booms that we pulled behind an cabless tractor.
Nice getting the Water tag... we do the same here in the Fraser Valley, B.C. Even though we are considered a Temperate Rain Forest, same as Washington State, we still have to look after our water sheds... Good on you Zach....
Only visited grandpa's farm - never lived on one. But it was some of the best 'fun'. Helping around the place - riding on the tractor when young. Later driving one while turning hay for him. Sad to see it now - nothing left of the farm but a huge subdivision. Only thing left is the county cemetery across the street where part of a movie was filmed at. (Harry and Tonto Art Carney 1974) Take care - be safe, hope the family and you are doing well.
First episode I've watched since being back from my 3 week fishing trip good to see the actor playing the millennial farmer deal putting out great content
We usually sprayed early in the day when the weeds are the most active, when it gets too hot out they go into a conservation mode and can limit the herbicides effectivness due to the weeds low metabolisim
From a Turf and Agricultural Manager, its always best to switch up chemicals, use 3 or 4 fungicides and rotate them. Same with herbicides and other chemicals. Plants and grasses get use to the same chemical and it becomes less effective or doesnt last as long.
Former detasseler here (rite of passage growing up in the midwest). That word invokes horror in my blood and I still have the battle scars from me against those razor blade leaves walking the rows. I really miss it :(
Growing up on a farm, we had family friends and cousins stay for a few days and some for the summer. We paid them for school money in the fall, they still remember those days 60 years after.
Your kids are living the ultimate dream with all the fun toys you treat them to. It would of been great to have grown up on a farm. You and wife are doing a great job raising them from what I have seen on here. Loving the video's.
We don't have nearly as much corn as you do, but we had a drought for the last 3 years. That will bring you close to bankrupcy. Thank God we have enough rain this year so we can get enough feed for the cows
I really enjoy watching you and your farm and your farming and I enjoy watching you because you're good looking Minnesota farmer you have more writing equipment than any farm show I watch you go from one riding thing to another writing thing keep up the good work I'm praying for rain for your farm
I got my son his first ATV when he was 4. It was a 1985 Honda 4-Trax 125 5 speed. I put it in second gear and wire tied two blocks to the rear break and said have at it. Go tear up the yard. Huge step up from his PW John Deere gator. Lol
@@MillennialFarmer Gotta love dirt track racing. Just haven't had time to make it to the track much this year. BTW If you run into Hot Karl, please don't let him win the B main
You showed us the steaks you pulled, do a Millennial Farmer cooking edition! The life of a farmer is envious, the stress of a farmer not so much. Keep doing what you're doing and we thank you.
no time wasted on an outro lol thanks for the fun video! I love how you'll try a NY strip though you're a t-bone man. I wonder if you'll like the NY strip better than the large side of a t-bone lol
Congratulations on your certification! Glad you took some time off to rest and recharge. It’s not easy producing quality content like you do week in and week out.
It's dry here south of Fergus Falls also. We are starting to see the stress on the corn & beans. You can really see some damaged fields when you go south of us. We had .75 inches of rain a couple of weeks ago & not a drop since. Not much chance in the forecast for the next 10 days either. 90's most days too. I hope we can all get some rain soon to turn things around.
Making easy things, like simple repairs , hard has been a life long struggle for me. Between Murphy’s Law and having a life long case Browns 🦠 Disease ! I always dread those kind of chores.
I would enjoy if you'd include dates on stuff. As a neighbor about 250 miles SW of you in the great state of South Dakota, always interesting to compare how our crops compare.

We try to keep country lifestyle secret from city folk. They don't like smells, dust, noise, big iron on the roads, and pickups to mention a few
Apparently your Private Drive sign isn't working on that kid driving that "machine" tearing up the road. LOL! Don't let Onyx do that. haha!
That or teach him to grade the driveway. ;-)
Heh heh that funny
I cut the cable years ago, YT is pretty much my couch potato time. Really enjoy your channel entertaining and educational. Spending a day or week on a selfie stick seems like it would get old fast.
Everyone deserves a break every once in a while.
Even the rain

Being a farmer consists primarily of saying “Maybe...(insert hypothesis about observation)...I dunno”
Oh and talking about how the plants need more water
Glad to have you back mate. Never hesitate to take time away from here....family and sanity are too important . We're privileged to have you live your life in a goldfish bowl.....but respect your need for 'quiet time' and quality family time.

Thanks for the break. Its work watching your videos. I didn't realize how tired ow watching I was until you gave me a break. I will be forever grateful!
"they sprayed the beans with something that killed em... That was me" I laughed so hard... Love this channel!!
Really you found that Really funny??
Thanks for the update, good to see the corn still hanging in there!! Hope you have a bumper harvest! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Keeping it between the rows... Thanks for saying a few kind words about Hay farming. Great Hay year this year!!
- Kansas Hay farmer.. Stafford, KS
We’ve come along way baby from the Spra-coupe, which we never had. We had a galvanized tank with manual fold booms that we pulled behind an cabless tractor.
Nice getting the Water tag... we do the same here in the Fraser Valley, B.C. Even though we are considered a Temperate Rain Forest, same as Washington State, we still have to look after our water sheds... Good on you Zach....
Steak hits the ground, and we all missed a, “Hey, you okay”.
Threw a perfect pass and he missed it.
Thanks for continuing making videos! I wish I could have grown up on a farm, so watching your videos helps me live that!

I APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR EFFORTS.
First episode I've watched since being back from my 3 week fishing trip good to see the actor playing the millennial farmer deal putting out great content
Moved my family from a neighborhood to a farm in the country 2 years ago and it was the best decision we’ve ever made.
Thanks for letting us all enjoy watching your farming operations..
I had noticed your lack of content lately. I am glad that it was just a break and not something wrong.
I Honestly don't know how you folks keep up the channel and your podcast. Thanks for sharing with us!

Man you are right, I was born and raised on a farm and you are right people did miss out on a lot
I've never done this I watch you all the time you really are an amazing man love your interactions with your kids
Don’t you just love it when the little ones start being more and more like you 😂
Former detasseler here (rite of passage growing up in the midwest). That word invokes horror in my blood and I still have the battle scars from me against those razor blade leaves walking the rows. I really miss it :(
I'm glad you took some time off from the camera and gave Mrs. MF a break from editing. Have a good summer.
Growing up on a farm, we had family friends and cousins stay for a few days and some for the summer. We paid them for school money in the fall, they still remember those days 60 years after.
We are freezing here in South Africa. Not as cold as it gets there bh you, but this is cold for us. It's winter here. Enjoy your summer.
Always great to put family first. Take advantage of time.
Your kids are living the ultimate dream with all the fun toys you treat them to. It would of been great to have grown up on a farm. You and wife are doing a great job raising them from what I have seen on here. Loving the video's.
Zack, enjoy your, family, your farm, your maintenance on the farm.
THANK YOU... YOUR PRODUCTIONS ARE TOP TIER.
That was a pretty accurate toss with a little zip right at your face. You must be proud!!!
Thanks for continuing to make vids take all the breaks from it you need we love your videos and don't want them to end!!
That's awesome. I bring vets up to Lake Melissa every year for Walleye
Best fish there is!!
Hey we don't blame you from taking a break.
Keep up the hard work! Hope your having a good summer as well! We are just about done with harvest.
I absolutely agree, being a farm boy is an awesome part of my life!!
Thank you for these video please keep them coming
We don't have nearly as much corn as you do, but we had a drought for the last 3 years. That will bring you close to bankrupcy. Thank God we have enough rain this year so we can get enough feed for the cows
Howdy, While your spraying the glad hands also spray the electrical plugs. Insertion is easy and corrosion is stopped for a while.
Same thing with corn in our country, we get some rain in past few days but it's too late for some.
Greetings Zach for you and your family
I really enjoy watching you and your farm and your farming and I enjoy watching you because you're good looking Minnesota farmer you have more writing equipment than any farm show I watch you go from one riding thing to another writing thing keep up the good work I'm praying for rain for your farm
My brother lives in central Illinois he told me today that they are having so much rain the beans were yellow, the corn was about 10 ' high.

Hello from Yorkton, Saskatchewan, Canada. Thanks for sharing your great video’s please keep them coming.
Love this channel and our farm!
Hope you get some rain up there
Its always the simple jobs that seem to take longest. Like changing fuel filters in a JD sprayer !!!
Did the Rogator yesterday, 2 men 4 hrs to change all filters, hyd and engine oil. What fun. South Australia. Great channel.
“Somebody” that makes mistakes hangs around our farm too.
Thanks for sharing this with us sir and you and your family have a beautiful night later
That was us last year.... we farm in South Central Ontario, Canada and by mid July most of our crops were roasted. I feel your pain
Love watching your videos man, hope your racing season is going well too!
Nice one Zach. Great video as always, thankyou. 🤜🤛🇬🇧🇺🇸
Thanks for taking care of the water up there before it comes to Louisiana
Hi great videos you put up. I hope you get some rain, but I've always found crops do well with slightly less rain than too much.
here in North Texas we have had so much rain this year we are running our Pivots just to fertilize the crops
Here in Pakistan we have more rain too
Zach, most of us love your vids and don’t mind the breaks for fam. You take as much time away from this to be present for the wife and kids.
Go enjoy your family that's more important than a video.
God bless you and your family.
When you get slow at the farm you should show some more dirt track pictures or working on the modified car think that's what it is right
That just might happen with our 2nd channel soon...
@@MillennialFarmer Gotta love dirt track racing. Just haven't had time to make it to the track much this year. BTW If you run into Hot Karl, please don't let him win the B main
Great video. I wish we could share our 25 inches of rain in three weeks in central Missouri with all of the farmers to our north.
Any upload by you is bound to be awesome
You showed us the steaks you pulled, do a Millennial Farmer cooking edition!
The life of a farmer is envious, the stress of a farmer not so much. Keep doing what you're doing and we thank you.
Your FBN guy is pretty incredible service !!
Glad you took a break! You deserve it!
no time wasted on an outro lol thanks for the fun video! I love how you'll try a NY strip though you're a t-bone man. I wonder if you'll like the NY strip better than the large side of a t-bone lol
Thanks for sharing as much as you do and your podcasts are awesome take time
Whens the next Derek with Vice Grip Garage collaboration going to happen? Love seeing guys like you all getting together.
Awesome Video and Much Love as Always!!!
Congratulations on your certification! Glad you took some time off to rest and recharge. It’s not easy producing quality content like you do week in and week out.
My experience as a farm kid was much different. Do without, wear it out, were the order of the day. No 4 wheeler for poor cotton farmer kids. lol
Come to south alabama. It rained the other day for 45 days and got 30 more days of rain forecasted. Wettest summer we have had in awhile.
Hey Zach can u plz give ur dad a camera and plz tell him to explain what going on with the crops and other stuff like that
Have a good time with your family your stake oh don't forget the barley pops take care God bless🙏
I'm praying for rain for a lot of MN. Down here by Mankato we are looking better than most.
Watching this with Steve in the sprayer while spraying is a goal keep it up Zach ur so awesome!!!!
Glad to see this back!
Finally!! I’ve been waiting and love your content!!
It's dry here south of Fergus Falls also. We are starting to see the stress on the corn & beans. You can really see some damaged fields when you go south of us.

Great job Zach... keep up the good work.
Zack, get yourself a couple of heavy boards and put under the landing gear to spread the weight out when you drop a full trailer
Glad to see ya back brother
I'm so proud of him. 🏁🏁👍
Making easy things, like simple repairs , hard has been a life long struggle for me.
Between Murphy’s Law and having a life long case Browns 🦠 Disease !
I always dread those kind of chores.
Your going to like the liberty works wonders for us , keeps the fields super clean 👍👍👍👍👍
I would enjoy if you'd include dates on stuff. As a neighbor about 250 miles SW of you in the great state of South Dakota, always interesting to compare how our crops compare.
Thanks for the reminder my friend, I forgot to take the steaks out of the freezer, Steak and Scallops tonight!
“This shouldn’t be to difficult” as a fellow farmer, this will be on my gravestone
Gravel is a perfect trainer for a future drift racer! NeatO!
